Default Bug in my light.

There is a moquito or some sort of a gnat that got into my overhead console light. Does anyone have experience with removing for say a bulb change? I would like to take the little dead guy outta there. Pics are always a plus.

carefully put a very thin flathead screw driver between the lense and the body of the light. and pry it out. be careful and also might have to use 2 screwdrivers.

What he said. A small size flathead is definitely what you need (do not get the regular sized ones as they will be too big to pry out). Are you talking about the map light (the one b/w the driver and passenger seat right next to the sunroof controls), or the dome light? If it's the dome, you will need to be extra careful taking off the lens cover as you will most likely use 2 screwdrivers (one to pry out the main slot off the side, and one to provide the additional leverage). Good luck!
